- This invention relates tostallframes and' has for an 'object to providel a. frame con-x nected with the stallI and adapted't-o carry a 'stanchion and so constructed as to permit the adj ustment' of the frameto vary the distance of the stanchion from a given line upon the floor.

.AI further object ofthe invention 1s toprovide' a frame hinged, upon opposite sides to permanent -uprights and' carrying centrally of such frame a Stanchion with mea'ns 4*With these and ot-her 'objects in view the invention comprises certain novel 'construc- 'I tions,

parts as will be hereinaftervmore fully'decombinations and arrangements of scribed and claimed. i

In the drawings :--Figure 1 is a vperspective View of the improved stall frame. Fig.l 2 is a view of the stall frame in side'elevation showing in dotted lines the stanchion' and frame moved in opposite directions to the limitof its movement. Fig. 3` is a top plan view .of the stanchion frame showing the frame adjustable both front andback of normal. Fig. 4: is a detail VView in elevation of the pivoting means. Like characters of referenceindicate corresponding parts .throughout the severa-l views. j

The improved stall frame whichforms the subject matter of this application comprehends the use of uprights 10 and dividers 11'of substantially the usual and ordinary construction,- as shown-in the drawings or in any'preferred' form. lThe uprights, 10 carry pivoting and locking memi' Specication ofLettersvPatent.

bers 1 2 adapted to embrace the uprights as at 13 and also to embrace the stanchion frame as at'14; The stanchion frame comprises two parts 15 engaged asl aforesaid at 14,-said clamping member being clamped uponthe stanchion frame by the bolts and 'nuts -sh'own at 16.v The upper and lower endsof the stanchion frame sectionslare curved inwardly and provided with vslots 1'( normally registering andv heldl in adjust-` lment by an eye bolt 18v as shown lparticularly atFigs. 1 vand 3. The eye' bolts carry chains19 to which is suspended astanchion 20 of lsubstantially 'the usual and "ordinary construct-ion. Y It will be yapparent that by loosening the nuts'upon the eye bo1ts18 thevsections 15 of the Stanchion frame may be moved either forwardly or backwardly, as indicated. in dotted lines in Figs. 2 and 3, to secure ,such forward 'or' rearward adjustment as maybe required by the length of the animal secured present invent-ion residing' in the ,adjustthat the formv and ableframe `and the means -by which the adjustmentl is locked' and the 'manner of mounting the stanchion within saidadjustable frame. lVe claim v j1. In a stall frame, upright-s, a stanchion frame composed of sectionsy slidably connected at their extremitiesand pivotally and adjustably connected withthe uprights7 and a' stanchion carried within-the frame and adjustably movable therewith.

2. In a stall frame, uprights, a stanchion, frame comprising upright andV integral curyed sect-ions, said curved sections overlapping and pro-vided'with registering slots, 1 testimony whereof We aix our v signata bolt extending from the slots and adapted tures in presence oftwo Witnesses.

to lock tHe extremities together, a stanchion carried by the bolt and pivoting clamps carried by theguprights and engaging the Vertical sections 'of th'e stanchion frame for clamping *said* stanchion frame sections in adjusted position.
